That's so great to know, Iso. I always have coffee in the car and end up throwing out the dregs onto some landscaping plants somewhere. Now I'll do so in good conscience.
One can never have enough anti-snail remedies. My favorite is using sweetgum pods around plants they like -- the pods are prickly and the snails won't cross them. I have a sweetgum tree that drops a whole dumpsterload of pods each year.
It's also fun to just throw the slimy pests out into the street. Die, snails, die!
